Motte
and his family is the best known of the Amdur Efron family branches. This is
because of the genealogy written up by his great-child Sam Effron of
Poughkeepsie (see page --) and the Effron family history contained in the
history of Amdur, written by another great-grandson, Yedidia Effron (see
page--).

His
known children were:

Mashe
(Chapter 13)

Shevakh
(Chapter 14)

Eliezer
Tsines or Efron (Chapter 15)

Shifre.
Nothing is known about Shifre. She is identified in Sam Efron’s genealogy, and
he says that she was married in Amdur. That is all that is known of her.
According to the birth dates of the other children of Motte, she would have
been born approximately 1808 to 1826, and therefore in the 1858 revision would
be between 32 and 50 years old. There are seven Shifre’s in the revision list
for Amdur, but four of them are far too young, and one of them, Shifre
Baranovich, age 54, is too old. One of the remaining two is the wife of Yankel
Efron – Shifre’s brother -- so she can be excluded. It should be noted that
many assumptions being made in this process might not be true, but to come up
with some hypothesis, we now have one possibility: Registration 108, Shifra
KHAM, age 34, wife of Josel Manel KHAM, also 34. They have no children and are
living with his parents and siblings
